Cheng Shaoshang climbed to the top of the wall with three strokes, five divided by two, and his agility was not inferior to that of the past. It can be seen that he has climbed a lot over the years.
"Why are you still up so late?" Qin Hao stretched out his hand to grab the branch of the tree, climbed onto the wall with his feet, and sat side by side with Cheng Shaoshang.
Cheng Shaoshang hugged his knees with both hands and leaned his face on them. His bright eyes flickered at Qin Hao: "I can't sleep."
Seeing that her clothes were thin, Qin Hao took off his robe and covered her: "It's so late, why don't you wear more clothes when you go out?"
Cheng Shaoshang whispered: "My grandma won't let her run around. I won't dare to come out until she falls asleep."
"Ghost clever." Qin Hao scratched her nose. Cheng Shaoshang wrinkled his nose and suddenly put his hand on Qin Hao's face and stared blankly.
Qin Hao smiled and squeezed her hand: "What are you looking at?"
"Ah Hao is so good-looking." Cheng Shaoshang was not shy at all and looked at Qin Hao carelessly.
Qin Hao was happy and rubbed her head lovingly: "Don't be ashamed."
Cheng Shaoshang said solemnly: "I told you: food, sex, sex. Ah Hao is just good-looking, there is nothing to be ashamed of."
While he was talking, an angry shout suddenly came from next door: "Cheng Shaoshang!"
Following the sound, he saw Xiao Yuanyi staring at the wall with an angry face. Cheng Shaoshang said depressedly: "Isn't she already asleep?"
Qin Hao also felt a little embarrassed. It felt like his parents caught him in premature love. However, Qin Hao still stood up and bowed slightly to Xiao Yuanyi: "Aunt Cheng..."
However, Xiao Yuanyi ignored Qin Hao at all, but said angrily to Cheng Shaoshang: "Get out of here!"
Cheng Shaoshang could only look at Qin Hao reluctantly, then turned over and fell down the wall.
Qin Hao was also helpless. Xiao Yuanyi didn't know where the fault was. Most parents would try their best to make up for what they owed their children, but when it came to her, she looked down upon Cheng Shaoshang.
I originally thought that with Cheng Shaoshang having a certain cultural foundation under his influence, Xiao Yuanyi would not be so harsh on her. Unexpectedly, the result was the same. Xiao Yuanyi still did not relax his high standards and wanted to build Cheng Shaoshang into a
A famous lady.
In Xiao Yuanyi's room, Cheng Shi was awakened from his sleep. He didn't realize it and yawned a little impatiently.
"Madam, I'm tired from this journey. Is there anything I can't say to you tomorrow morning?"
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Xiao Yuanyi staring at him with a cold face. Cheng Shi woke up instantly, which was better than being poured with a bucket of ice water.
"Kneel down!" Xiao Yuanyi shouted angrily.
Cheng Shi's feet softened and he knelt down subconsciously.
Cheng Shaoshang couldn't help laughing.
Xiao Yuanyi couldn't help but glared at her husband: "What's the matter with you?"
Only then did Cheng Shi realize that his daughter was there, and he stood up awkwardly: "Isn't this something I'm used to?"
Xiao Yuanyi ignored him and turned to glare at Cheng Shaoshang: "You still have the nerve to smile? You climbed the wall in the middle of the night to have a private meeting with the foreign man. The Cheng family will be completely disgraced by you."
Cheng Shi became anxious when he heard this: "What about climbing on the wall? What about having a secret meeting with an outsider? Who is that boy? Let me see if I don't peel off his skin!"
Xiao Yuanyi waited for Cheng Shaoshang: "Speak, aren't you usually very good at speaking? Now I know I'm sorry!"
Cheng Shaoshang snorted: "What's the shame? Ah Hao and I are in love, and we haven't done anything shameful."
"Master, listen to what she said. She is still in love. Is this what a young girl who is not yet married should say?" Xiao Yuanyi was furious.
Cheng Shi asked nervously: "Niao Niao, who is the A Hao you are talking about? What are you doing with him? Why do you fall in love with him?"
Cheng Shaoshang pursed his lips and said, "He is the second son of the Qin family next door. Didn't dad and he communicate through letters?"
"Hey, it turns out it's him, I was shocked." Cheng Shi wrote to Qin Hao and had a good impression of him. He even sent someone to inquire about him, otherwise he wouldn't have dared to let Qin Hao send his daughter to Bingzhou. .
Xiao Yuanyi saw the father and daughter flirting with each other and was furious: "Okay, you two are hiding something from me. Who is this second son of the Qin family? Why don't you recruit him quickly?"
Cheng Shi saw that he could no longer hide it, so he explained Qin Hao's situation in detail.
Xiao Yuanyi became even more angry. She grabbed Cheng Shi and gave him a blow: "You have known it for a long time, but you kept hiding it from me. After all, I am also a naughty mother. You father and daughter actually joined forces to expire. Do you think it's possible? If you want to divorce me, marry her again!"
Cheng Shi hurriedly swore: "Madam, what are you saying? I won't tell you because I'm afraid you will be like this now. This second master of Qin is first-rate in terms of character and family background. He is the most suitable one for us. But it’s too late.”
"Hmph, if it's as good as you say, how can our Cheng family's family status be so high? You're not afraid of ruining Nia Niao's reputation!" Xiao Yuanyi still didn't calm down.
Hearing what she said, Cheng Shi was really a little flustered. In the past, he thought that his two children were still young and were not old enough to talk about marriage, but he forgot that his daughter would be getting her haircut next year.
Cheng Shaoshang said with certainty: "Ah Hao is not that snobbish."
Then she read the poem Qin Hao gave her: "You won't understand."
After saying this, Cheng Shaoshang left under the dumbfounded gazes of Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi.
"Once upon a time, the sea was difficult to overcome, but Wushan was not the cloud. Why haven't I heard this poem?" Cheng Shi didn't read much, so he thought it was written by the great Confucian.
Xiao Yuanyi rolled her eyes at him angrily: "This is obviously a love poem written by the second son of the Qin family to your daughter. Of course you haven't heard of it!"
"So, this guy is quite talented!" Cheng Shi became more and more satisfied with Qin Hao's talent.
Xiao Yuanyi said: "They are quite talented, but don't think about how old they were back then? This guy can write such love poems. There is no guarantee that he is not a sentimental person. How dare you hand over your daughter to such a person?" ?”
Cheng Shi slapped his forehead: "Yes, why didn't I think of this? No, I have to talk to Niao Niao."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "What are we talking about now? Do you want to spread the news to everyone in the entire capital? Besides, can she listen to it now?" Xiao Yuanyi glared at Cheng Shi.
Cheng Shi was so anxious that he paced back and forth in the room. Xiao Yuanyi said angrily: "Now you know you are anxious? When I usually discipline her, you always protect her. Now you are panicking."
"No, Madam, you are resourceful and resourceful. Come up with an idea quickly." Cheng Shi didn't bother to defend himself.
Xiao Yuanyi then said slowly: "Tomorrow, find someone to inquire about the deeds of the Second Young Master Qin. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you survive a hundred battles."
Cheng Shi's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes, Madam has a way."
The other day, the Cheng family was having dinner, when suddenly there was a noise outside the door, and the servants came to report in a hurry: "Something is wrong with the master. Many black-armored guards came outside, and the house was completely surrounded. They also said
We are coming in to search and seize someone."
Cheng Shi stood up immediately: "What? Black-armored guard?"
The Black Armored Guards are no more than ordinary troops. They are the personal troops of Emperor Wen. They are the most powerful Imperial Guards besides the Yulin Guards.
This had to make Cheng Shi wonder whether Emperor Wen was going to burn bridges. After all, he was a surrendered general and had no power at all in the new court. His honor and disgrace depended entirely on Emperor Wen's mood.
However, Xiao Yuanyi stood up calmly and walked to Cheng Shi: "Let's go, let's go meet this black-armored guard."
Cheng Shi took a deep breath and strode to the door of Cheng's mansion.
In the front hall, Mrs. Cheng was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground and kept crying: "Oh my God, my eldest son narrowly escaped death on the battlefield, why are we still ransacking our house..."
Ge's family also had no master. Cheng Shuo saw Cheng Shaoshang running out in panic and followed him subconsciously.
But he saw Cheng Shaoshang climbing up the wall quickly and swiftly.
Qin Hao was having dinner with his parents. When he heard the boy's report, he quickly said that he was full and hurried back to the yard.
"Is His Majesty jealous..." Cheng Shaoshang had read the Spring and Autumn Period and knew the principle of cunning rabbits dying and lackeys being cooked.
Yawenba
Qin Hao shook his head and said: "Your Majesty is generous and will never treat meritorious ministers like this. Don't worry, stay here for now, I will check the situation."
"Well, Ah Hao, then be careful." Cheng Shaoshang agreed. However, after Qin Hao left, she climbed over the wall and climbed back to Cheng's house.
Qin Hao came to the door of Cheng's house and found that the leader was Ling Buyi, who was negotiating with Cheng Shi and his wife.
Ling Buyi stared at Cheng Shi and his wife with a sinister look on his face: "Captain Cheng, I have been ordered to arrest the traitors who stole the weapons. I don't mean to embarrass you, but if you are stubborn, don't blame me for being rude!"
Cheng Shi straightened his chest and said angrily: "Since I was ordered to arrest him, but there is a yamen letter and seal, if you just say that Cheng is harboring a traitor, you have to show me the evidence, right?"
The atmosphere was tense for a while, and a slight mistake could lead to a bloody conflict.
At this moment, Qin Hao quietly walked up to Ling Buyi and held down his hand that was drawing the sword.
Ling Buyi was a little surprised when he saw Qin Hao, and his expression softened slightly: "What are you doing here?"
Qin Hao ignored him, cupped his hands at Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi and said, "See Marquis Cheng, Mrs. Cheng."
The edict from Lord Cheng Shi has not yet been officially issued, but there has been news in the army for a long time. Qin Hao heard it mentioned by several old generals at the banquet last night.
Cheng Shi had never met Qin Hao, and naturally he didn't know him either. Xiao Yuanyi secretly whispered in his ear: "This is the man who once faced difficulties in the sea."
"Oh, it's your kid!" Cheng Shi was very angry when he heard this. The cabbage that he had raised for several years was already being taken care of before he had grown up. How could he not be annoyed?
Qin Hao was a little embarrassed. The father-in-law really looked at his son-in-law, and he didn't like it.
Ling Buyi couldn't wait any longer and said to Qin Hao: "What happened today has nothing to do with you. If anything happens, I will take full responsibility for it!"
Qin Hao stopped his ordering hand and said in a deep voice: "Marquis Cheng has been fighting for more than ten years and shed blood for the imperial court. You should not be insulted. Who do you want to arrest and what you have committed? You might as well tell them. Marquis Cheng understands the righteousness.
I will definitely cooperate with you, you and I have also led troops, so don’t chill the hearts of the generals!"
Ling Buyi fell into deep thought. Cheng Shi saw that Qin Hao was upright and what he said was very to his liking, and his liking for him immediately increased.
"What the Second Young Master Qin said is true. If the criminal you mentioned really violated the king's law, even Cheng's close relative, Cheng will definitely kill his relatives out of justice! But if you don't tell the reason today, Cheng will definitely sue His Majesty for repayment.
justice!"
After hearing this, Ling Buyi's expression softened, and then he said slowly: "I heard that Marquis Cheng has an uncle named Dong, who is a logistics and military supply man. Is this possible?"
Cheng Shi's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He naturally knew what kind of character his uncle was, and if he really committed a crime, he might not be able to escape his involvement.
"He was involved in a case of arms embezzlement and disappeared a few days ago. Someone saw him getting into Cheng's carriage, and the carriage is now parked in the backyard of the mansion. Where does Marquis Cheng think he should be hiding?" Ling Buyi
Staring at Cheng Shi's words word for word.
At this moment, Ge Shi suddenly came to the door and shouted to Ling Buyi: "Little general, I'm afraid your news is wrong. My carriage has never left the house in the past two days, and Uncle Dong has also
I haven't been to Cheng Mansion for several days, so you should search elsewhere."
Ling Buyi sneered, pulled out the knife, put it on Ge Shi's neck, turned to Qin Hao and said, "Some people just won't cry until they see the coffin."
Ge Shi's legs were so frightened that she almost fell to the ground, but with the steel knife on her neck, she did not dare to make any move.
Cheng Shi was also a little worried about his face, no matter how he said that this was his sister-in-law.
At this time, Xiao Yuanyi directly pushed Ge Shi back and scolded: "You have no official position and no position. You have no right to speak here. Why don't you get out of here!"
Ge Shi was able to escape the catastrophe, but she was not grateful at all to Xiao Yuanyi for helping her out. Instead, she stared at Xiao Yuanyi with a cannibalistic look, not at all like her legs were weak with a steel knife on her neck just now.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Some people are like this, they are like a rat carrying a gun, being obedient to outsiders, and hitting hard on their family members.
At this moment, Cheng Shaoshang suddenly ran out, first smiled sweetly at Qin Hao, and then saluted Ling Buyi.
"General, as long as I hand over Uncle Dong, the Cheng family will be fine?"
Ling Buyi glanced at Cheng Shaoshang and Qin Hao in surprise: "Do you know where Dong Cang is guarding?"
"General Ling, don't you think it's inconvenient to place a valley next to the carriage?" Cheng Shaoshang smiled lightly.
Ling Buyi waved his hand, and the black-armored guard went straight to the backyard. Neither Cheng Shi nor Xiao Yuanyi stopped him this time. They knew very well that the greedy ordnance could be big or small. If the situation was serious, I'm afraid they would all get involved. If they stopped him at this time,
If the crime is increased, the whole family may suffer.
What's more, Cheng Shi had long disliked Uncle Dong's behavior. If his mother hadn't been nagging him, he would have cut off all contact with Uncle Dong.
The black-armored guard quickly dragged out a fat middle-aged man from the backyard. He had a lot of straw on his head, which he had obviously found in the straw pile.
"Take them away!" Ling Buyi couldn't wait to take people away. Over the years, he has been finding out the culprit behind the corruption of Mo's weapons. Back then, the Huo family was massacred because they had been secretly replaced with inferior weapons. He was the only one.
Survivor, his surname is not actually Ling, but Huo!
However, at this time, Mrs. Cheng came to the door crying and hugged Uncle Dong, refusing to let the black-armored guards take him away.
Cheng Shi was afraid that the black-armored guard would hurt his mother, so he had no choice but to stand in front of the black-armored guard.
There was a trace of murderous intent in Ling Buyi's eyes, and he said in a cold tone word for word: "Anyone else who blocks his path will be killed, without mercy, and pardoned!"
Cheng Shi quickly pulled his mother away. He could feel the murderous intention in Ling Buyi's body. This young general was not joking. He really wanted to kill someone!
Mrs. Cheng didn't know that she had passed through the gate of hell, but she slapped Cheng and began to cry.
"You heartless person, I am only a younger brother like your uncle, how could you let him be taken away."
Cheng Shi tried to persuade him while avoiding his mother's slap: "Mom, what can I do if my uncle is violating the national law now? Embezzling arms is a serious crime. Maybe our family will be imprisoned as well."
"What? Sitting together?" Mrs. Cheng was so frightened that she almost fainted. She covered her head and calmed down for a while before saying, "I thought our family would be able to live a good life when you came back, Dalang. What should we do now?"
Ge Shi rolled his eyes and pointed at Cheng Shaoshang: "It was all her. If she hadn't confessed Uncle Dong, Uncle Dong would not have been caught. He was so vicious at a young age..."
Before Ge Shi could finish his words, he heard a crisp sound, and Ge Shi was slapped to the ground. He covered his face and looked at the young man who slowly withdrew his slap in disbelief.
This scene also made everyone present dumbfounded. Mrs. Cheng was originally provoked by Ge and was about to question Cheng Shaoshang when she was shocked by the sound of such a powerful and heavy slap.
Ge Shibao pointed at Qin Hao and cursed: "You, how dare you insult me like this? Don't forget that you studied under my husband..."
Qin Hao snorted coldly: "That's why I woke you up, so that you wouldn't have to speak out and cause the Cheng family to be confiscated and exterminated!"
"Copying... raiding the house, extermination, annihilation of the clan?" Mrs. Cheng was so frightened that she grabbed Cheng Shi's hand and kept trembling.
Cheng Shi knew that Qin Hao was trying to scare Ge, but he didn't expose it. He had long wanted to teach his sister-in-law a lesson.
Xiao Yuanyi looked at Qin Hao who was protecting Cheng Shaoshang behind him, and had mixed feelings in her heart for a moment. This young man was personable and talented in literature. He could stand up at critical moments and he also cared for his daughter in every possible way. He could not tolerate her being wronged in the slightest. She said that she met all her requirements for a son-in-law, but her family status was too high for the Cheng family to reach!
Qin Hao said coldly: "The black-armored guards are your Majesty's personal soldiers. Now that the black-armored guards have come to take someone, it means that the matter has been heard by the heavens. If the Cheng family expires, it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor. If you don't hand over the person today, If you come here, the lives of everyone in the Cheng family will be ruined at the hands of a stupid woman like you!"
"Niao Niao is doing this to kill relatives with great righteousness. Don't forget the righteousness for small righteousness. Even if Uncle Dong is sentenced in the future, Your Majesty will think of this and give the Cheng family a lighter sentence. Niao Niao is saving you, but you stupid woman is doing this to She accuses her in every possible way, which is really stupid."
Cheng Shi also reacted: "Yes, Niao Niao is a righteous act, what can be criticized?"
Mrs. Cheng was completely shocked and she never dared to mention bringing Uncle Dong out again. She just kept suffering.
Ge Shi was also overwhelmed by the crime of deceiving the emperor, and could only cover his face and run away in embarrassment.
Cheng Shaoshang smiled as he watched Qin Hao help him out. He was about to say a few thoughtful words to him when Xiao Yuanyi ordered the servants around him to pull him away. He could only make faces behind Xiao Yuanyi's back, but Xiao Yuanyi turned around and saw, The scene was very embarrassing for a time.
